Galleria Commerciale di Piazza Garibaldi (Shopping Gallery of Piazza Garibaldi) is a shopping…read moreconcourse that's part of the Garibaldi metro station directly in front of Napoli Centrale. Since ratings are so subjective how nice it is really depends on who you ask lol. Coming from NYC it's nothing to write home about. This gallery sits below ground and is accessible via escalators, stairs and elevator. The standout elements of architecture are certainly the overhead "tree arms" fanning out glass sun roofing over the length of the open arcade. There are about a dozen shops and another several storefronts with "open to rent" signs. Several clothing retailers including casual, sportswear and shoes, intimates, children's wear, a handful of candy and fast food restaurants. Entrance to be metro lines L1 and L2 here too, though I didn't take it from here so can't comment. The plaza that this shopping concourse is located in, is very large and open, unfortunately with it being close to the train station, similar to many other cities this is also where there's a confluence of unhoused people squatting in the vicinity. Seeing homeless individuals often in NYC this isn't anything new, seemed to be a fair amount of refugees in addition to the general homeless population of sometimes mentally ill and/or those in unfortunate situations with no support network. My note to those walking in the area is that these people are usually not dangerous, and there is plenty of police presence in the area. Like traveling anywhere in large cities just be wary of your surroundings and try to fit in rather than being loud and unknowingly disruptive, which draws attention.

This is the shopping center right outside the train station, and it's also a major gathering point…read morefor tours and buses. You'll find a variety of shops to explore, either get souvenir or a quick bite.

It is a public shopping gallery in Naples, southern Italy. Built between 1887-1890 very beautiful…read morearchitectural design. From the ceiling to the floor. It was pack with locals and tourist. The skylight was amazing. Just be careful with crowded area for pick pockets people. But it is a must see when in Naples

This shopping arcade is located close to the port area in the San Ferdinando district, across from…read moreTeatro di San Carlo and around the corner from Piazza del Plebiscito. The building itself 5 stars easily, it's the smaller version probably by a third of Milan's Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, and was in fact modeled after its Milanese sibling. Milan's version completed in 1877, while Naples' broke ground 1887 and commenced construction in 1890. The monumental multi-level marble structure, colonnaded exterior and interior facade, mosaic tiled floor, glass arched ceiling and central dome are undeniably similar. The difference lies in the use and maintenance. Milan's retailer windows are lined with name brands and luxury shoppers, Naples is more down to earth filled with a mixed variety of retailers and restaurants. The latter is often characterized as having a more relaxed, more gritty, integrated atmosphere with the surrounding neighborhood, while the former is more aspirational and polished, even in the building maintenance--peering along the glass dome at Vittorio Emanuele II every seam appears gleaming, Umberto appears to show more signs of water/rust runoff. Meandering around the neighborhood, I'd recommend dropping by during the day, the interior is more impressive and inviting when the stores are open and sunlight flows into the building from above. On a Saturday evening it's a popular meet spot for locals, especially students headed for a night out in the Quartieri Spangoli (Spanish Quarter). A handful of popular dessert spots, cafes and restaurants make their base here, including Mary's Sfogliatella which I purposefully came to try (more on that in separate review). Unless you plan on eating or shopping here, probably need only 10 minutes to walk around and admire the architecture. I saw it as a short detour enroute to my final destination.

This was an authentic outlet mall, much like I have been to throughout the United States.

We ate lunch at a bistro, and had very nice salads while we sat in the shade and people watched. The employees didn't speak very much English, but we didn't expect them to- just worth noting.
